4/5 Rich B. 2 years ago on Google
We
were
at
the
resort
1/29/22-2/5/22.
We
arrived
at
6PM
and
it
took
about
45
minutes
to
check
in.
Even
though
there
was
nobody
in
front
of
us.
We
had
to
prompt
the
reception
person
with
everything.
She
spoke
no
English
and
we
spoke
very
little
Spanish.
She
gave
us
a
map
to
our
room
which
was
so
lightly
printed
we
could
hardly
read
it.
Not
a
very
good
first
impression.
We
discovered
we
were
in
another
building
and
when
we
entered
our
room,
all
the
trouble
checking
in
was
forgotten.
The
room
was
fabulous.
On
the
top
floor
and
at
the
end
of
the
building
we
had
a
huge
living
room,
bedroom,
2
bathrooms,
and
a
huge
balcony
with
a
private
stone
tub
on
the
balcony.
Although
not
facing
the
ocean,
Cancun
is
a
narrow
strip
of
land
so
we
had
a
view
of
the
large
water
between
us
and
the
mainland.
Across
the
street
were
2
shopping
centers
with
many
shops
and
restaurants.
We
had
to
ask
where
the
restaurants
were.
The
buffet
was
our
only
option
as
the
specialty
restaurants
were
reservation
only.
A
word
about
the
staff.
They
were
everywhere
and
only
wanted
to
help.
The
resort
was
spotless
and
constantly
cleaned.
Food.
The
buffet
was
about
a
5
out
of
10.
There
was
plenty
of
food
but
nothing
special.
We
compared
it
to
dorm
food.
Breakfast
was
the
usual
with
omelet
stations.
We
discovered
on
day
3
that
you
had
to
ask
for
bacon
as
it
was
never
on
the
buffet.
Lunch
buffet
seemed
better
and
the
snack
bar
did
have
mediocre
hot
dogs,
hamburgers,
ribs,
and
pizza
along
with
snacks.
We
discovered
the
specialty
restaurants.
The
fish
restaurant
which
was
open
for
lunch
and
dinner
was
not
an
option
as
I’m
allergic
to
fish.
We
did
eat
at
the
Italian
restaurant
3
times
and
it
was
pretty
good
with
excellent
service.
I
could
not
understand
why
the
second
“specialty”
restaurant
was
a
Mexican
restaurant
after
all
we
were
in
Mexico
and
the
buffet
was
filled
with
Mexican
food
but
it
was
and
we
ate
there
once
and
found
it
nothing
special.
We
live
on
the
West
Coast
and
have
some
outstanding
Mexican
food.
This
was
not.
We
were
really
disappointed
with
the
food
in
general.
The
location
was
fabulous,
the
beach
was
fabulous,
the
pools.
We
are
two
seniors
so
we
went
to
the
adult
pool
which
was
actually
quite
nice.
It
had
its
own
bar,
oh.
When
you
order
drinks
ask
for
double
shots
otherwise
you
taste
nothing.
There
was
always
something
going
on
in
the
regular
pool.
They
had
DJ’s
everyday
organizing
anything.
The
problem
was
they
had
the
microphone,
music,
and
sound
up
to
the
level
needed
in
Yankee
Stadium.
You
literally
heard
it
in
the
ocean
and
across
the
street
by
the
shopping
center.
Why?
We
had
a
good
vacation
but
with
all
the
nice
restaurants
within
walking
distance,
I
wouldn’t
stay
in
an
all
inclusive.
